I have an old pc, its windows 10 operating system, 8GB of ram(now at 7.8GB), 2 days ago the RAM usage that my pc took after startup, started to rise, first it was normally 60%, then it turned to 70%, then 80%, and today it was 90%. CPU is stuff are completely normal. after trying to lower RAM by ending high RAM usage software in Task Manager, and removing Apps from startup, the lowest I got was still 78% RAM (Currently while I'm typing its 80-85%). Please help.

So a couple things to try in no particular order:
Can you take a picture of this page in Task Manager?

Though right click on the column headers, click on "Select columns", check "Working set", then sort it by that like in this image.
